Oh, goddamnit. Two Minnesota state legislators and their spouses shot in their homes by someone dressed as a cop.
This is gonna get worse before it gets better.
Hermanos! The devil has built a robot!

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Our wings are not tired.
Very dangerous and scary world. Watching Gov. Walz speak just brings home what an opportunity was lost. He should be the VP.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Got my "no kings" t-shirt just in time for my little burg's "street visibility event." Nice.

Completely separately -- absolutely horrified by Minnesota political assassinations and attempts.

Yeah. Pretty horrifying. Thanks, --t, I wish life had given me...soaring anthem material, instead, but I keep on being Not Aaron Sorkin(Although I could write walk-and-talks. Walking optional.)

Oh, shoot, yes, erikaj, I meant to comment -- thanks for sharing that piece. You convey a lot really well in a few words. Not easy to do.

Thanks...wasn't even sure it was my best work, but not bad for how quickly it came out and all that. Watching NoKings on youtube.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Sounds like there are huge turnouts for the No Kings marches, even in the rain on the East Coast.
Hoping thunderstorms douse Trump's parade.
So far the only major altercation is the police teargassing the crowd in Atlanta.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Our local No Kings was extremely well-attended and very peaceful and friendly. Even being so close to where Marines were deployed from (there were some middle fingers that also were deployed from cars) it was chill while we fought to defend democracy.
Tonight, Palm Springs.
